8th July: Yesterday London's transport system was hit by terrorists, several people have died and many are injured. I was in London on monday and my friend said how you walk past so many people in a street in London that when they've passed you you've already forgotten their faces. Some of the images really stuck in my mind from the news so I wrote this song as a tribute to them and to show how I feel, that we will not be beaten by terrorists. Their aim is to hurt us and disrupt our lives, and we cannot let them win.
Lyrics
A friend once said to me
that faces in London
are gone from your mind
when they pass you by
But I'll remember
when the faces are covered in blood
The man on the stretcher
is somebody's son
but we've seen much worse
They'll never break us
They'll never win
A friend once said to me
that faces in London
are gone from your mind
when they pass you by
But I'll remember
The photo of the silhouette
who's choking in the dark
trying to make his way home
but we've seen much worse
They'll never break us
They'll never win
Life carries on
Life carries on
they'll never win
